A Talk About Discounts.

"a funny thing about country
merchants" said a commercial travel
cr. is their inability to understand tho
discount business correctly. You know
Il rood deal of business Is done noWu-
davs from standard price list, with
discounts which iluctuate as the market
changes. Sometimes the discount is
simply , or 10 oil, and sometimes it is a
sort of double discount, 10 or ID being
fne REGULAR scale discount, which, OF
course. j. granted by the salesman, who
Is also allowed by his house to add a
further discount, rs the circumstances
NAV warrant. In this way has sprung
mp the custom of giving such discounts
as 10 and ), or 20 and 50, and 50 on.
Of course our customers always hang
out for as big a discount rs they can
ret, but not one in five of them under
stands the true secret Of discount fgur-
ing. They nearly all want the bic dis
count first. For instance, if | say TO a
man: You can have those goods with
20 and 80 off, he is likely to reply,
make it so and 20 off and / Il take 'em.
His idea, you see, IS that with the bio
discount figured first he gets d greater
reduction, but in fact it comes out Just
the same. Twenty per cent off a hun
dred leaves 50, and 80 per cent off that
leaves sc. Now work it the other way:
Thirty per cent off 100 leaves 20, and
20 per cent off 20 leaves sc. See? II
works just the same with any discounts

Good Taste IA Dress.

The American girl and woman don't
dress as we'll as they should. Anglo
maniacs of lesser or greater degree
may talk about the athletic English
woman and the extra weight and
strength that she carries if they like.
The talk isn't good. American fem
iGinity has more strong points, outside
of that of health. than that Of any
other nation. except the savages, of
which we know little except that the
sun and fresh air have plenty of chance
at them and that they work very hard
and despise the hired girl But our
women are most inartistic dressers. A
promenade on any crowded street in
any American town will show that.
Take trip and see for yourselves. I'll
wager a good deal that fat and squat
women will be seen in light colored
garments and thin women in funeral
black garments that show their imper-
fections of figure Is luridly as a black
lettered sign on Il white card.
l wouldn't give a picayune myself
for woman who has not the necessary
pride to dress herself as well as her
means will allow. Clean, neat, and
even luNuriant dress-always sup
posing that one can afford luxury
tell Of ambition, and ambitions an ex-
celent thing if controlled. 1t may be
an absence Of taste that leads n woman
to dress in unsuitable dresses and
choose unsuitable patterns and shades
for them. But advice is one of the
cheapest things of the present day.
And it is not alone the gauut and the
fat women who handicap their faces
and figures with bad dresses Of bad
shapes and worse coIors. | see girls
who are fair of face, but little tcshy,
who use barred goods for their dresses,
and wear close and small hats and
bonnets; and tall and rather diapha-
nous maidens, who have an inordinate
affection for bars anG big brimmcd
hats Very bad taste, my dears, l
assure you, and unnecessarily bad
taste. too. Itisa taste thatuo amount of
money can put into shape. because it

though there are quite a number of
them in every group. l wish that the
average apportioument Of brain among
them was larger than il is, for it has
been my bad luck to meet a good deal
of masculine yapidity in good clothes.
But | suppose the well-dressed men Of
a century of civilization average up

hope so. We all know thin Young
men who have an abiding love for
striped and very tight trousers and
hats with overpoWcring brims. And
we all know how the general effect of
the hat. the trousers, and the man
strikes the eye-of everybody but the
thin man. All tail men wear pea
! jackets and short ones frocb coats, and
fair men red neckties and dark ones

The Care ofthe FinGer-NaiIs,

To keep the fnger-nails in good or
der requires considerable care and at
tention, and perhaps no addition to the
modern toilet is more useful for its pur-
pose than the dainty manicure sets in
their pretty boxes. The plain unpre-
tending one which one may purchase
for dollar will do its work quite rs
well as the more expensive and elabo-
rate sets. Before using these articles
the hands should be washed in tepid
water with a fine glycerinated soap,
and before removing the latter rubbed
with a tablespoonful OF fine Indian
meal or oatmeal, then rinsed in ttpid
water, and after this rubbed with lit
tie glycerine in soft water The hands
should be rubbed together until the
glycerine and water has nearly evap-
Grated, then they should be dried com
pietely and the nails cut and cleansed
with the nail scissors and cleaner while
they are still soft from the action of the
tepid water. Next push down the skin
which IS apt to grow over the nails,
and proceed to polish them. For this
purpose take YOUR chamois polisher,
put a pinch Of the nail powder on its
face, and rub each nail till it acquires
a fine polish and a rosy color.

Floral Gossip.

One who loves flowers will want

plants TO cut from, for more or less Of
them viii be wanted in the house all
through the season and to give away
in bouquets to friends, and there will
be apt to be a demand from church and
school entertainments for more flowers
than one feels like cutting from that
part of the garden designed for the
adornment Of the home grounds, and
which can not be encrOached on to any
great extent without detracting from
its beauty. To supply these demands
| would advise having a corner in
which to sow all kinds of flowers.
Such a corner can be made the most
attractive part of the garden, because

but when you 90 into the catch-all

in on neighbor with whom all cere-
mopy could be dispensed with. No
formality there, 40 putting on airs for
